3. No BS Dating Advice (Rejection, Dating Apps, Situationships, Red Flags)

Welcome to Episode #3 of Beyond The Hour! In this episode I am going to tackle and discuss major topics and issues in the dating scene. We will cover everything from dating apps, dealing with rejection, the dreaded "talking stage", how to meet people, and all the red flags to look out for. This episode may be mainly about dating advice, but there are still plenty moments of good life advice to be found for my non single people! Be warned this episode is blunt and to the point, its no BS for a reason! Instagram: @beyondthehourpod
